      To me it’s pretty easy…Katy Perry reeks so much sexuality while Taylor is just a good nice girl. Young guys like when Travis did that will always go for Katy Perry.

    What’s so great about the song Fortnight is the title has 2 different meanings. One based on her & Matty didn’t date long which the media wants to say two weeks (It went on privately for a while people just didn’t know about it) but also bcuz you notice how in the video title she doesn’t make it all one word? She has fort above night…. That’s because Healy likes to make forts (has talked about it), which is also mentioned in a different song.

    What shocks me on this Taylor album is the theme of being a woman, marriage, and children. I’m actually shocked because she has only 1 other time mentioned having kids but it runs through this album like the Nile. Its heartbreaking some of the lines about marriage “I’m so pissed off I gave you all my youth for free”, “you shit talked me under the table talking rings and talking cradles”, “even statues crumble if their made to wait”, “I’m so afraid Ive sealed my fate”, etc. I can imagine at age 34 and finding out she has been thinking about marriage and babies for some time and now she is starting over at 34. She referred to herself as a paperweight. Really listen to the closing song the Manuscript after you finish the album, it summarizes her entire dating career starting probably early when she was a teenager with a much older man feeding her lines about family that teenagers may believe, then dating more pretentious older men who seem to use her as a trophy but don’t want to marry, then she dated men her age but they were immature and not ready to settle down just partying stage, now she is 34 and men (the two exes on this album) are now interested in women 10 yrs younger than she is, so she feels she sealed her fate. And, it’s heartbreaking. As a woman, I understand these thoughts she is having at her age and feeling like she wasted 6 years “of her youth for free”. Travis has 3 songs. the alchemy, so high school (which sounds so high school and she is singing about things high schoolers do), and maybe the albatross. It’s possible, no one knows for sure.

    • @bp717
      @bp717 Před 15 dny +1

      It is so sad bc she seems to have had this traditional view of marriage/motherhood in her head. Now that all of that trauma has been processed, I hope she understands that she can still have what she wants with or without a man.

    Ladies, the lyrics are brilliant. I’m going to butcher some because like you guys, I need to listen.
    When Travis had his show “Chasing Kelce” he was asked by the host if he had to choose one person to “marry, kiss or kill. He said, to kill Ariana Grande, kiss Taylor Swift, and marry Katy Perry.
    The full-throttle lyric came from a Zoom interview Travis had with Kristin Cavallari on 9/19. He was already all in with Taylor. I think we saw her the following weekend at her first game. He told her what he needs to see in a woman to go “full throttle”
    “Watching American Pie while your boys play “Grand Theft Auto” is a video game his friends were playing at his house.
    “Silence my sighs” having sex with his friends in the other room.
    The brilliance of Taylor using poetry gives her the ability to tell a story from 2-3 different points of view. It keeps us guessing because she may be talking about more than one man in a song.
    I think this was a healing album for her. When she said, “these songs now belong to you” It was onward. Next chapter.

    I use a Dove bar in my bed for horrible night cramps.
    Needs to be on the bottom sheet near your feet.
    Amazing. Change once a month.
    Sometimes you need 2 bars if 2 people in the bed.

    If you have oily skin, use oils on your face at night. Toner strips too much oil from your skin, stop using toner. If you strip the oils, your skin overproduces sebum. It’s a never ending circle!

    I have a cell phone case with a built-in slim wallet with a few card slots. It has my license, frequently used card and a backup, emergency $50 hidden in the back, and the card key for my car. Because it has my car key in it, I’ve never left it anywhere. It might be different for you bc you use Ubers often. I drive everywhere and can’t even unlock my car without my phone/wallet.

    Taylor even coded her official 'So High School' lyric music video to show TK & TS in pale pink letters while all the other letters are white! I think it was around the 40'ish second mark where the lyrics say, 'cheeks pink in the *TwinKling lighTS*'
    🩷🤍🩷
    And, on The Alchemy, I believe that her saying "That child’s play back in school is forgiven under my rule" might refer to Travis getting kicked off his College football team for a positive Marijuana test.
    (Another thing that I thought of was, Travis and Jason Kelce are also notoriously known to have BOTH been kicked out of preschool when they were young. 😂 Jason hurt a kid playing a game and Travis threw a chair at the teacher. Lol. They've talked about it on their Podcast. Jason's wife Kylie was on that day and looked horrified like, 'Good Lord... I married into this?' 😆)
    Just my humble opinion. 😊
    There are PLENTY more references on both songs I could go into if need be.

    • @florencehaber9847
      @florencehaber9847 Před 19 dny +1

      Kylie knew about both brothers getting expelled from nursery school before they got married. Kylie was thrilled she got Jason a football player and married him. She is down to earth and Travis and Jason and mama and Papa Kelce don't hide anything about their lives. Travis and Jason laugh about their growing up days. It was always about playing all the sports. Mama and Papa Kelce always supported their playing sports and getting into the NFL.
